ToggleRelai raises 12 million dollars for its expansion in Europe
The Swiss application Relai, specialized in buying and selling Bitcoin, recently secured impressive funding of 12 million dollars. This fundraising was led by ego death capital, in collaboration with other notable investors such as Plan B Bitcoin Fund, Timechain, and Solit Group. Thanks to this funding, Relai is well positioned to accelerate its expansion in Europe, focusing on enhancing its user interface and simplifying the process of purchasing cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin, already popular for its security and ease of use.
Obtaining a MiCA license to access the European market
In its ambitious plans to conquer the European market, Relai aims to obtain the valuable MiCA (Markets in Crypto-Assets Regulation) license. This license is essential to address a potential audience of 400 million users across the European Union. With a regulatory framework in place, the MiCA regulation will provide increased transparency and further secure the use of crypto-assets across Europe. This strategy should allow Relai to strengthen its position as a market leader in Europe, while boosting Bitcoin adoption through targeted user education on the benefits of Bitcoin as a savings tool.
Growth and development of Relai
Since its founding by Julian Liniger and Adem Bilican in 2020, Relai has experienced significant growth, with user adoption increasing by 300% year over year. The application stands out with its self-custody feature, allowing users to independently manage their Bitcoins. The goal is to reach one million downloads by 2025, reflecting Relai’s commitment to democratizing access to cryptocurrencies. With its intuitive interface, even uninitiated European users can easily buy and sell bitcoins, making Relai a recognized name in the rapidly expanding fintech sector. While challenges abound, Relai is resolutely positioning itself as a pioneer in the crypto-assets sector.
